Advanced Automation: Red Hat Ansible Best Practices (DO447)

As part of our effort for continuous improvement of our materials, we are issuing a maintenance release of “Advanced Automation: Red Hat Ansible Best Practices” (DO447).  We received feedback from instructors on ways to improve the course, increasing stability and fixing some problems found in the field.

"Advanced Automation: Ansible Best Practices" (DO447) is for experienced Red Hat Ansible Automation users who want to take their Ansible skills to the next level, enabling scalable design and operation of Ansible automation in the enterprise.

Hello,

What does it mean exactly? Shall we expect maintenance break with loss of access to the courtse? Or does it mean that new course version is already published?

Thanks for clarifying.

This was a very targetted release and is already available. Earlier this week we released a fix to the `lab admin-cert start` script which failed in some instances.

I know exam EX447 has been retired.  Does the content of the DO447 course material serve as preparation of any other Red Hat cert exam?

I'm sure the focus of the course is to prepare an individual for performing in a practical (i.e. real-world environment) more so than gearing up for any exam.  However, it would be nice to catch 2 fish with one worm if the possibility exist.

Thanks in advance.

All Red Hat certifications exams are hands-on. No MCQ exams in Red Hat.

About the Author
I first touched a PC in 1984. I really got hooked when I saw that I could actually send messages to another computer by connecting to the telephone line via this device called a modem. This truly fascinated me. My next fascination was writing programs, using a language called "Basic". I'm sure one of the reasons I was so fascinated with writing programs on the PC was because the only programming I had done was using Fortran, via the keypunch machine, and submitting a stack of cards to the batch operator. My how the technology has advanced since then. I don't recall the year I began my journey with UNIX, but I do recall that it was on an AT&T 3B15 minicomputer. All I ever saw was a dumb (kinda like me about UNIX at the time) terminal. From there, I graduated to Sun Microsystems offerings of UNIX - SunOS and Solaris. Yeah, I was a certified SCSA and SCNA. I worked hard for those certifications. I was so proud. I carried the flag for Sun back then, like I carry the flag for Red Hat now. I've also used IBM's AIX brand of UNIX, and HP's HP-UX brand of UNIX. I don't recall the first Linux I got my hands on, nor am I sure of the year I took the plunge. I do have some CDs with Red Hat Linux 4 on them. Well, I've always been one to hitch my wagon to the leader of a particular technology. In the world of Linux, I think it's safe to say that Red Hat is the undisputed king of that world. When Red Hat introduced their Red Hat Academy, I made a mad dash to get on board. However, the cost was just a little bit prohibitive for my institution's budget. Still, I never took my eye off of using Red Hat Linux, or becoming a Red Hat Academy. When I discovered that the cost to become a Red Hat Academy had been removed, I went into high gear to establish the partnership. I've been proudly associated with the Red Hat Academy now for...I forget. One thing I haven't forgotten, is that I'm a self-appointed, self-anointed evangelist for this program. The learning opportunities, along with the support the Red Hat Academy provides to students and instructors is exceptional!
